I need a .22LR plinker, probably something I could put a scope on for just-for-fun silloetthe shooting. Leaning towards a semi-auto repeater with box mag, but might consider a bolt action with box mag if it was really cheap.
I've seen and shot a Ruger 10/22 I think it was and thought that was a fun rifle, plus easy to put accessories on, I think. Any other suggestions or strong opinions on what to buy? I see WalMart has some bolt action .22s with 5 or so shot mags for in the $140 range, which is what I'd like to get away with if possible (easier to slip past the wife).
Anyone want to share their advice with me? This is to economically round out my range trips (and add even more fun) with my 9mm pistols, SKS, and Mauser 98K. I also have a Harrington and Richardson Model 700 .22 magnum, that would be perfect if it was .22LR instead of the magnum. The .22 mag ammo cost more than my 9mm!
